Lecanicillium aphanocladii: a biocontrol agent against insect pests and phytopathogens
Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Recent research findings on the biocontrol potential of Lecanicillium aphanocladii fungus against insect‐pests and plant diseases were highlighted. This review indicates that several L. aphanocladii strains show great potential to be developed as multipurpose biocontrol agents active against several insect‐pests, plant diseases and plant parasitic ...

Composition of the Cuticular Waxes ofPicea abies andP. sitchensis
Phytochemical Analysis, 1996 The chemical compositions of the cuticular lipids of the needles of Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst.) and Sitka spruce (P. sitchensis) (Bong.) Carr.) were investigated by gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry. Fractionation of the wax extracts was carried out using column chromatography.

Assessing the Presence, Pattern, and Environmental Correlates of Seasonal Skin Thickening in Anurans
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.Histological sections, like that of the ventral pectoral skin of Lithobates pipiens, were measured to assess variation in skin thickness throughout the year in three North American anuran species. After correcting for individual body size, we test whether skin thickness changes throughout the year and which factors (environment or life history) explain
